have grown! They're about 3 months old now...teenagers in chicken years! They're making those fabulous chicken sounds...talking to me when I bring them weeds...fill their waterer...throw them some scratch. Their feathers are beautiful...and plentiful! I really had no idea how many feathers they shed. Their pen is littered with them. Now I wait patiently for eggs...I'm thinking they'll start laying by Halloween. I shall make a celebratory omelet when they do! Until then, I'll enjoy them for the funny species they are...seemingly angry, yet playfully friendly and unbelievably dumb. I never knew they'd be so much fun!

About Me

I am Heather...wife to Alex and stay-at-home mom of 3...all of whom have flown the coop. I'm a new empty-nester!
I'm a creative soul who makes more messes than actual art. I'm moving away from mess-making to writing, which was my first creative love. My heart's desire is to encourage moms and women of a certain age in living a fun & funky faith-filled life...I'm traveling along life's road, learning as I go...it's an incredible adventure!
